Abstract [sv]

Climate changing is a growing problem for many countries and communities over the world. The cities has a huge work to deal with in their reforcements of their cities to be resilient ones. This thesis makes an effort to investigate and illuminate some of the problem the cities has to solve related to flooding, hazards, erosions, rising sea levels and crotches. This thesis will help to find solutions that international and national efforts has produced and handed out to each other. A lot of communities are charing their excellent tools that works for them. The interesting question is then; what tools can a spatial planner use in their own city? Some tools are reported in this thesis and some of them are applied on a town called Ljungby, in south of Sweden, in an effort to make Ljungby a more resilient city. Most of the tools is about different sustainable storm water solutions that will reduce the water flow in the city and to reduce the stress on the sewer system when it is raining.
